About: The glm-ie toolbox contains scalable estimation routines for GLMs (generalised linear models) and SLMs (sparse linear models) as well as an implementation of a scalable convex variational Bayesian inference relaxation. We designed the glm-ie package to be simple, generic and easily expansible. Most of the code is written in Matlab including some MEX files. The code is fully compatible to both Matlab 7.x and GNU Octave 3.2.x. Probabilistic classification, sparse linear modelling and logistic regression are covered in a common algorithmical framework allowing for both MAP estimation and approximate Bayesian inference.

contributed by George Papandreou:

• preconditioning support in the inf/linsolve_lcg.m CG routine.

• @matConv2 and @matFD2 support different boundary conditions in deblurring

• various mat/@*/diagFAtAFt.m support circulant preconditioning

• bugfixes in nonnegativity option in pls/plsLBFGS.m and pen/penVBNorm.m when used together with EP

• inf/diag_inv_sample.m, a Monte Carlo estimator

gfortran support to pls/lbfgsb/Makefile (thanks to Ernst Kloppenburg)

slight modification to mat/@matFFTN/mvm.m to make it more consistent

About: The gmm toolbox contains code for density estimation using mixtures of Gaussians: Starting from simple kernel density estimation with spherical and diagonal Gaussian kernels over manifold Parzen window until mixtures of penalised full Gaussians with only a few components. The toolbox covers many Gaussian mixture model parametrisations from the recent literature. Most prominently, the package contains code to use the Gaussian Process Latent Variable Model for density estimation. Most of the code is written in Matlab 7.x including some MEX files.
